More updates





























Boy, am I slow at posting again. First off I have had 2 sick kids this week. WOW, I have to give tons of props to the mom's that have more then 2 kids. I don't know how I survived. lol haha

Well, on Saturday, April 21, my agency, Adoption House had a party for the families that have adopted domestically and internationally in the last year. We had a really nice time and LilyRose finally got to meet Paige. Paige got home in June of 06 and boy is she gorgeous. LilyRose gets a little high strung around crowds and she was off to the races that day. Anthony was trying to calm her down most of the day. I never saw it that bad before. To top it off, my SW was there and she got a little of bit of the "spicy girl attitude" also. Can't wait to see what happens at our first post-placement meeting. LOL.


Now onto Joseph's updates. As I said earlier, he will be trying out for the Summer All Star Baseball team and he is really very excited about it. The head manager checked him out at his first game but wants to try him out one on one. So Sunday April 22, he had a soccer game in the morning and he got one of the 2 goals for that game. He got the goal off a kid that he has been in competition with for 2 years. Then he comes home and we get a phone call that he has a baseball game. It's a make up game from the week before. But, he has the All star try out in the middle of it. So, we go to his baseball game and he plays really good because he is pumped up about the try out. We leave one field and race to the other field and there goes my son, The All Star. He did awesome. The manager said it looked really, really good for Joseph. We won't know for sure until next week, but I think he did great either way. He can't wait for my brother to call from Iraq so that he could tell him all about it. My brother was a great baseball player when he was younger, actually a great pitcher. He had a try out for the majors but blew his arm out right before. So instead of being a baseball player, my brother became a NYC Police Officer. My father never recovered from that one. So anyway, Joseph had a busy Sunday and the price that he paid, he got a really bad cold on Monday. LilyRose got sick Sunday night, so it has been a crazy week.
I have some pictures, not many, but some cute ones. Hope you enjoy.
